Aaron, My hardware is a Nokia IP110. The NIC's in it are fxp's. According to the m0n0.ch http://m0n0.ch/wall/hardware.php "VLAN tagging The following drivers/NICs either support VLAN tagging in hardware or handle long frames properly. All other drivers/NICs use software emulation that causes a reduced MTU (which may lead to problems). * hardware support: bge, em, gx, nge, ti, txp * long frame support: dc, fxp, sis, ste, tl, tx, xl (most)" I think that means my hardware is supported and also supports long frames. Is that correct? The steps you describe I have already done. It seems fairly straight forward. I also configured DHCP for each of my VLANS. So if the switch is configured properly, when plugging into the switch, I should get a IP address from the VLAN the port belongs to? I think my main problem is configuring the Dell PowerConnect 2724. It's quite confusing. And to compound my problems, the switch has a buggy HTML interface, when it times out, I have to clear my cookies to log back in. Thanks for your ideas. -- Joe LaGreca Founder & Owner, BIGnet Online 619-393-1733 Office 619-318-3246 Cell www.BIGnetOnline.com On 9/26/07, Aaron Cherman <aaronc at morad dot ab dot ca> wrote: > >I just got a Dell PowerConnect 2724 switch to use with my m0n0wall. > > So far I haven't been able to figure out how to get vlans working > > between the two.
